The Expendables features a star studded cast, albeit from the eighty’s, and features UFC fighter Randy Couture. The movie had an impressive opening day, taking in $13 million in sales on Friday, and is expected to be the number one movie at the box office this week. Is it too early to talk about sequels? Here’s the scoop as presented by the Hollywood Insider:
Hollywood’s battle of the sexes seems to be working out well for the studios and their male- and female-focused movies. The testosterone-fueled Expendables bowed to an impressive $13 million Friday, which could translate to $35 million weekend win. And the Julia Roberts-starrer Eat Pray Love opened to a strong $8 million, a number that should jump up to about $25 million by weekend’s end.
